Love You for the Rest of My Life

Chapter 955 She’s Jealous and Inferior

Shen Yilan really made a fool of herself, momentarily unable to find a topic of conversation and eventually returning to her seat.

But she sat uncomfortably because Di Mingjue kept massaging Gu Qibao’s legs, and Qibao seemed to be quite enjoying it, which made her feel terribly upset.

The caring demeanor of Di Mingjue was truly heartbreaking for her.

She could have pursued Di Mingjue before and might have had a good chance of success, but she gave up.

Instead, she chose a scumbag who even abused her at home.

At the slightest disagreement, he would hit and kick her, which, compared to the caring and gentle Di Mingjue, was far worse than a scumbag could be.

What could be more painful than regret?

She never would have guessed that the cold Di Mingjue could be so incredibly tender with his wife.

It seems that judging people by their everyday demeanor is not reliable; you have to get really close to see the truth.

Now all she could do was envy.

After massaging for a while, Gu Qibao gently placed her hand on his, smiling softly and saying, "That’s enough, no need to continue."

Di Mingjue smiled, said nothing, and took her hand in his.

Watching from the side, Shen Yilan’s heart was filled with all sorts of unpleasant feelings, and she never expected that the once arrogant girl who seemed to know nothing like a little brat could now present such a graceful and appropriate side at such events.

Looking at Gu Qibao in that expensive evening gown, her heart felt as if it was being pricked with needles.

She knew all too well about that dress.

It was a limited edition gown from an international top-grade evening dress brand, translated into Chinese as ’Noblewoman’, with only three pieces worldwide.

It even had a charming theme name, the ’Emerald Enchantment’, and was designed to be worn with a matching pair of shoes.

The diamonds on the shoes were all real, and although not top-grade, they were certainly not far off.

The fabric of the dress was made of high-quality mulberry silk, exceptionally close-fitting and lightweight, appearing ethereal and settling perfectly on the skin.

With every movement, the dress danced along, truly resembling a fairy.

The dye was naturally extracted from plants, and it was the chief designer’s latest masterpiece for the ’Noblewoman’ brand.

Just the price alone was far beyond her reach, likely not even considering a look for less than seven figures.

Because just those shoes alone were worth a seven-figure sum.

And this wasn’t something money alone could buy; there were only three pieces worldwide, and one could imagine how influential someone had to be to purchase them.

Compared to the last time she saw Gu Qibao, this outfit was even more high-end and dazzling.

Her heart was sore, and sitting beside Gu Qibao, she felt a profound sense of inferiority that tortured her.

She wanted to find a breakthrough, yet she couldn’t, because Di Mingjue’s eyes saw no one else.

The only, the only way was to make Gu Qibao embarrass herself.

Shen Yilan finally remembered the last time she saw the girl, how arrogant Qibao was.

Her words were unpleasant, and she likely wasn’t someone with high cultivation or intelligence.

Being so outstanding in finance, architecture, and Rubik’s cube, Di Mingjue was indeed top-tier, and it must be pressuring to stand beside such a man, right?

She wanted to see how much knowledge Qibao truly had to support herself in such a setting.

Once her true colors showed and she lost face, how much would the man still like her?

Thinking this way, Shen Yilan began to feel somewhat smug.

Before long, Dan Youguo arrived, accompanied by a group of national leaders, entering the banquet hall amidst a throng of bodyguards.
